Series to feature the unveiling of the 6 Hall of Fame sculptures, as well as giveaway of replica sculptures to all fans in attendance

The Orioles have scheduled a variety of giveaways and promotions designed to appeal to fans of all ages during the upcoming season, the 20th anniversary of Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The highlight of this year's schedule includes giveaways of replicas of each of the sculptures of the six Hall of Famers who will be honored as part of the Orioles Legends Celebration Series. All fans in attendance at the game in which each sculpture is revealed will receive an exact miniature replica sculpture of Frank Robinson, Brooks Robinson, Earl Weaver, Jim Palmer, Eddie Murray or Cal Ripken on the night he is honored.

The larger-than-life bronze sculptures will be unveiled each month during the season in the order in which each player's number was retired by the Orioles - Frank Robinson on Saturday, April 28; Brooks Robinson on Saturday, May 12; Earl Weaver on Saturday, June 30; Jim Palmer on Saturday, July 14; Eddie Murray on Saturday, Aug. 11; and Cal Ripken on Thursday, Sept. 6. At each of these games, all fans in attendance will receive the seven to eight inch replica sculpture of the Orioles player being recognized.

During the early stages of the 2012 season, for the first time in Orioles history, fans will be able to select the player they want to be immortalized in a bobblehead giveaway, scheduled to be distributed during Fan Appreciation Weekend. The Fans' Choice Bobblehead presented by AT&T will be given away to the first 20,000 fans 15 and over on Saturday, Sept. 29. More details on the voting process will be announced in the coming weeks.
